You are incorrect in your assumption regarding my level of prejudice towards yourself, neither publicly nor privately. I have no feelings one way or the other towards you, I do have a task to do in these forums and that is to keep things as correct as possible. You have repeatedly been told by staff the position of Bandlab regarding to topic of perpetual licensing but persistently bang the drum, possibly believing if you bang it long enough and hard enough you will brow beat the management into concededing to your demands. However your actions have now had a detrimental affect on this thread. Apologies to @Loody1985 but the actions of one give me little choice but to lock it. As has been suggested you try the free trial. Sonar has functionaly moved on from CbB, the basic workflow is the same as CbB, though it looks a little different due to the method used to generate the GUI. There have been serious improvements to the Audio engine and general operation of the whole program. You are correct in there is now being a charge to use it. There is a choice of monthly or yearly subscription, like so many audio software vendors are now doing, Roland, UVI, etc. The price is not unreasonable historically SONAR cost $450 to buy new, yes it was a perpetual licence which you had to renew each year to get the latest updates, features and bug fixes. The subscription offers near monthly bug fixes, new features when they become available and very diligent support when bugs are found. It is your choice stay with CbB or join the many that are helping Cakewalk Sonar to be a excellent audio tool.

Obviously you have never read the EULA that has come with software since the beginning of software for computers. You don't buy software, you buy a licence to use/operate it. The EULA gives you a licence to use the software, but you don't own it, it also gives the owner of the software, i.e. the issuer of the EULA, the right to withdraw your right to use it at anytime it feels like it. Recent changes to EU law now give the user the right to transfer that licence to a third party. The third party is subject to the same rules as the party who purchased that licence in the first instance.

😃😄 not sure if some are even the right chords, I keep finding interesting ones with a 4th or even a b5 or #5 that seem so much more interesting. Thanks again, you insight is so insightful 😉

I have heard that certain chords are supposed to follow, not quite sure why, I obviously don't know. Thanks for the ears and kind comments, good to know you enjoyed it too.

Sounds fine here Gary. Nice and clear, balanced mix.

Interesting another dark song, definitely overtones of MR Beefheart. I enjoyed mix sounds Ok here.

Nicely done, balanced mix here.

Interestingly dark lyric, in the main the whole thing ain't bad. If I was to raise a small issue I found the snare a bit to hot and relentless, bit to in the face during the verses, just my two Triganic Pu. What do I know though. Still enjoyed the song.

Sounds fine here Keith.

When I contacted their support, they basically said, 1. They don't test it in Cakewalk SONAR, this was in the Gibson days of ownership of Cakewalk. 2. They weren't interested in testing it in Cakewalk software.

Blame the spammers they are the root cause of most blocked posts.

Any idea @craigb on shipping costs to a galaxy far, far, very far away?

Rabbit hole achieved CClarry left of his own volition.

Listened on YouTube. Mix sounds reasonable here.

Someone got their funk on with this. Cool grooving sir. Nice job with the alternate Basses.

My dad said at his 75 birthday meal, "this getting old lark is no fun, in fact it is sh1t", my dad didn't swear. He made it to 85. Wishing you best Dave, hope the solution comes soon for you.

@msmcleod unfortunately that is not the case with all plugins Mark. Arturia's Stage 73 with zero all controllers ensbled zeros the volume to zero and the tremolo as well, which is irritating in the extreme. Same with the Korg Triton and Triton extreme. In fact several of my VSTi's will completely set their volumes to zero. Some even will get pan set hard left. I always disable the setting 90% of the time.

@mark skinner I only listened to the MP3 but the overall balance is much better. It has maintained being very cool stuff, love the cello.

They are an inspiration to me, more the earlier stuff but some of the new line up is getting interesting, they seem to be returning to their roots. Thank you Nigel.

@Magic Russ Analogue Lab gives you access to all their synths but with limited control and no real ability to create totally new voices. If you own the V collections or any of the standalone plugins then you can access the full synth.

All the best Dave, a little of the force to aid the surgeon and your recovery. Furry paws crossed.

Thanks, a little dissonance can bring the more melodic parts to life, the dissonance in this comes mainly from the ARP pattern being played of unusual scale notes. Appreciate your ears sir, thank you for your kind words.

Try Cakewalk.com.

Correct totally random even with plugins from the same company.
